THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHEAST GEORGIA...PIEDMONT
NORTH CAROLINA...WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA AND UPSTATE SOUTH CAROLINA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

A COLD FRONT AND AN ASSOCIATED AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL MOVE ACROSS THE TENNESSEE VALLEY THIS MORNING. BY THE TIME
THE FRONT MOVES INTO THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIANS AND SURROUNDING
AREAS THIS AFTERNOON...THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BE WEAKLY UNSTABLE
ACROSS THE REGION. THIS WILL COMBINE WITH VERY STRONG WINDS ALOFT
TO ALLOW THE LINE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO INTENSIFY AS IT
MOVES EAST ACROSS THE WESTERN CAROLINAS AND NORTHEAST GEORGIA
DURING THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. IT APPEARS LIKELY THAT ISOLATED
STORMS EMBEDDED WITHIN THE LINE COULD PRODUCE SEVERE WEATHER...
WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS BEING THE MAIN THREAT.
HOWEVER...THERE WILL ALSO BE A THREAT OF ISOLATED TORNADOES...
ESPECIALLY WITH ANY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP OUT
AHEAD OF THE MAIN LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS.

ALTHOUGH SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE ANYWHERE ACROSS THE
AREA...THE MOST LIKELY LOCATIONS TO SEE LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING
WINDS...AND TORNADOES THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING WILL BE ACROSS
UPSTATE SOUTH CAROLINA AND NORTHEAST GEORGIA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

NO HAZARDOUS WEATHER IS EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SKYWARN SPOTTERS ARE REQUESTED TO FORWARD ANY REPORTS OF LARGE
HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...TORNADOES OR FLASH FLOODING TO OUR OFFICE.
